CHORIZO BURGER

Steps:

• Start by heating the 3 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Add the minced onion and let this cook, stirring often, until the onion has nicely browned. Turn off the heat and set aside when it's ready.
• If you are starting from fresh peppers, you will need to roast, peel and deseed them. This is a good tutorial on that, or you can use canned or pre-frozen roasted chiles.
• Add all the ingredients for the mayo and puree. Add salt to taste. You will have some left over, so keep it in a container in the fridge, where it will last a couple weeks.
• Mix the ground meats together and knead well so they combine cohesively. Form into balls and slightly flatten them. If you are grilling, just form normal patties and grill. What follows is for a smashburger.
• Get a comal or griddle or large frying pan hot. Add the 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Set one of the balls of meat in the center of the oil, and use it to spread the oil around a little. Slick the underside of a bacon press or other pan with some oil. Press the meat into a patty of about 1/2 inch thick, more or less. Hold the pressure for about 30 seconds, then slide the bacon press off the patty to the side. Don't lift straight up or the patty will break. Salt the patty as it cooks.
• Let the meat cook for about 90 seconds more, then flip. Salt the other side. Add some onions to the middle of the patty and top with a slice of cheese. I like to put a metal bowl over the burger now to melt the cheese. Let this sit for another minute to 2 minutes, depending on how well cooked you like your burgers. While this is happening, lay the lettuce leaves on your buns and top with a little of the mayo.
• To build the burger, set the patty on the bun, then top with some of the roasted chiles and some more mayo. Serve at once. You can also layer like this: patty, onions, green chiles, then cheese. The greenery always touches the bun, and the mayo or other sauce goes on between lettuce and burger. °

• Bake in the preheated oven until tender, about 7 minutes.
• Combine ground beef, chorizo, onion, bacon, egg, garlic, cilantro, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and chili powder in a large bowl just until mixed; shape into 8 patties. Place a patty on top of each mushroom.

• Preheat a large cast-iron skillet over medium heat.
• For the patties, mix the chuck, chorizo, green chiles, a pinch of salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper in a large bowl until combined well. Pinch off a fourth of the meat mixture, forming it into a disc. Repeat with the remaining meat to make 3 more discs. Put 2 tablespoons olive oil in the preheated skillet, then add the patties. Using the bottom of a spatula, smash the patties until they are about 1/2-inch-thick. Fry until cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes per side, then remove to a plate.
• Meanwhile, start the eggs. Heat the remaining olive oil and the butter in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the eggs and cook sunny-side up, 5 to 6 minutes for a slightly runny yolk. Remove the eggs with a slotted spatula to drain or remove the eggs to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
• Spread the bottom of each bun with some of the cilantro mayo and place on plates or a serving dish. Top each with a patty and 2 pieces of bacon. Top each with lettuce, tomato and an egg; drizzle with some hot sauce. Spread the remaining cilantro mayo on the bun lids, then place them carefully on top of the burgers.
• Serve alongside the Taco Tots.

Reduce the heat to medium-high and cook until the patties are seared on the first side. Flip, and cook on the reverse side until the sausage patties are cooked through and the beef patties have reached the desired doneness. Remove the patties from the pan and repeat, adding another tablespoon of oil for each batch, until all the patties are cooked. Allow the burgers to rest for 5 to 10 minutes before plating.
• For the fajita-spiced peppers and onions: Heat a large saute pan over high heat until it begins to smoke. Reduce the heat to medium and swirl in the grapeseed oil. Add the peppers and onions and saute until tender.

• For the corn salsa: Combine the corn, crema, red onions, poblanos, cilantro, honey and lime juice in a bowl and mix well. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• To plate: Butter the insides of the burger buns and toast, cut-side down, in a hot skillet.
• Place a tomato slice on each bottom bun; then layer with a beef patty, some peppers and onions, a sausage patty and some corn salsa. Top with a top bun, and serve with French fries.

PORK AND CHORIZO BURGERS

Steps:

• Separate the mince into a large bowl. Dice the chorizo into small chunks about 1cm by 1cm and add to the bowl.
• Finely dice the onion, apple, garlic and chilli and add to the bowl, season to taste. (These want to be diced small enough so that you will not notice chunks of them in the finished burger.)
• Add the egg to the bowl and turn all the ingredients together with your fingers making sure that all are thoroughly incorporated. Whilst doing this don't be afraid to squash the mince together breaking up the stranded shape it holds. Once you are happy with this mixture separate into 4 balls and shape into your burger. Wrap in cling film and leave in the fridge for an hour.
• Pre-heat your oven to 180 place the burgers on a grill tray and cook for 25-30 min, turning halfway through. Serve on a bun with some lettuce, tomato and mayonnaise to garnish.
